〜Type-Moon World, ██████ Worldline, Chaldea〜
Although Yoma's ability to stop time was indeed outrageous, he ultimately suffered from a lack of knowledge, for he encountered...
"Aspros, a Saint who understood relativity before anyone, a physicist delayed by his cosmos."
Da Vinci felt it was a pity. If Aspros had decided to become a physicist, he would undoubtedly have made a significant impact in his time.
Even the theory of the constancy of the speed of light was brought up by Aspros...
When an object's speed reaches the speed of light, its spatial dimension shortens to zero, and time slows to a stop.
Dr. Roman nodded in agreement with Da Vinci's view:
"Not only that, Aspros's ability to move space at the speed of light is truly astonishing!"
The uncertainty and instability of space make it difficult for anyone to precisely divide a piece of space like Aspros, let alone apply external force to make this piece of space move at the speed of light...
It's truly hard to imagine how strong Aspros, with both brains and brawn, really is!
.....
[ Hearing Aspros's words, Yoma showed no sign of panic, still with a gloomy and cunning expression: "Hmm, haha, it seems I occasionally have to participate in someone else's performance."
Although Yoma was trapped in Aspros's, he would not be manipulated. His cosmos condensed numerous dark arrows around him, and his pitch-black Surplice covered his body!
Yoma's mouth was full of sarcastic praise for Aspros: "As expected of an elite capable of becoming the Pope!... But!"
"Your condescending and pretentious tone makes me very uncomfortable. Is that how all big brothers are?"
At this point, Yoma's emotions seemed to reach a breaking point. His left hand shot out like lightning, and a strange force locked Aspros.
A giant clock face appeared behind Aspros!
Looking at the clock face appearing on his body, Aspros was momentarily stunned: "Wh-what...! A clock appeared in my body?!"
Yoma, having successfully struck, said triumphantly: "So-called time does not exist only on objects moving in space!"
"Your very body is an accumulation of time... So, what happens if I reset it all to zero?!"
"Rewind Bio—!"
The next second, amidst Yoma's eerie laughter, Aspros's body, and even the clock's dial, spun backward until Aspros's body completely disappeared.
Aspros's life was completely ended by Yoma's time reversal, leaving only the Gemini Gold Cloth still in place. ]

〜Projection of All Worlds〜
"How could this happen...!"
Everyone's faces were filled with surprise and disbelief, their entire bodies frozen in place as if nailed down.
Just now, they thought Yoma suffered from a lack of knowledge, but it turned out the opponent's knowledge reserves were not much worse than Aspros's. In the blink of an eye, he reversed Aspros's body time.
"Holy crap... Having the ability to stop time is one thing, but to be able to reverse time, too? Are you sure you're a Specter and not a god?!"
( Translator-kun: Well, technically, he was a former God. )
After the people from other worlds recovered, their pupils were still filled with shock. Such a method of reversing a person's body time might not even be achievable by gods.
.....
〜Detective Conan World〜
Conan's eyes flashed with understanding:
"Regarding what Yoma said, I learned it in Hawaii!"
"He's right, the growth of the human body itself is a result of time's accumulation..."
Actually, Conan wanted to say that if Yoma used that move on him, perhaps his body could get rid of its childish appearance.
Haibara Ai looked at Conan:
"You mean, Yoma reversed this result to before birth?!"
The ability to manipulate time is indeed terrifying. Aspros's existence was directly erased from its source; no wonder only a Gemini Gold Cloth remained.
However, isn't Hawaii a vacation spot? It's strange that someone would teach such useless knowledge there.
〜JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Part 3: Stardust Crusaders Worldline〜
In a dimly lit room of an ancient castle in Egypt, Dio fell into deep thought:
"First time stop, then time reversal... This world truly makes it hard for me to feel at ease."
Ever since he saw the screen, he understood that time stop was not a rare thing.
He had already seen Stands with time rewind and time deletion abilities on the screen.
Initially, he wasn't too surprised, because they only lasted for about ten seconds and didn't go too far beyond common sense.
However...
"Why does this Yoma's time stop seem to have no time limit, and even more outrageous, he can rewind a person's time by decades."
This was what Dio found most unacceptable. They all had super-spec time abilities, so why could theirs only last for a few seconds?!
And Yoma could rewind a person's time without limits, wouldn't that make him invincible!! Who among the Saints would be his opponent??
〜Saint Seiya Shioriverse, The Lost Canvas timeline〜
"It's over..."
Manigoldo felt a sense of powerlessness upon seeing this scene.
Even if Aspros was strong, he couldn't resist such natural laws. An existence like Yoma, among the Gold Saints, probably no one would be his match.
The Pope muttered to himself:
"Time, oh time!..."
Where did this Heavenly Chief Star Yoma come from?! Such a powerful existence should have been recorded in the Sanctuary, just like the Three Judges.
Sisyphus also frowned deeply:
"The Hades Army's true strength is truly unfathomable!"
The Three Judges had been dealt with, the Four Dream Gods were all gone, and even the Twin Gods were sealed. With the return of Gemini, the Sanctuary gained another boost of power.
They originally thought the Sanctuary would usher in an unprecedented great opportunity, but then such a powerful opponent appeared! Even someone as strong as Aspros found it difficult to resist.
.....
[ The place was terrifyingly quiet at this moment. Yoma looked at the Gemini Gold Cloth in front of him triumphantly: "Annihilated, returned to the state before a fetus."
Then, he turned and left with arrogant steps, still muttering: "Next life, treat your brother well again. Goodbye, little brother..."
But the moment he turned around, Aspros's voice, which should have been annihilated in time, sounded again, full of sarcasm.
"Demon, where are you going? I have not disappeared yet!"
"Unfortunately, that move of yours doesn't seem to work on me!"
Hearing Aspros's sarcasm, Yoma's eyes widened sharply, and for the first time, an astonished expression appeared on his face: "How is that possible? You! Why..."
Yoma quickly turned back, only to see Aspros standing there wearing a Surplice, completely unharmed! He instantly froze: "Why weren't you annihilated? Ah!"
Aspros, clad in his Surplice, looked at Yoma with cold, clear eyes and explained: "My original body died two years ago."
"For a Specter, who has become an immortal, the passage of time is completely meaningless."
But soon, Yoma felt his brain was about to burn out: "Didn't you become a Saint again? How could you wear a Surplice!"
A wicked smile once again appeared on Aspros's face: "I am neither good nor evil! Hades and Athena have nothing to do with me, only myself!" ]
[ .....]
〜Projection of All Worlds〜
"Yooo, I didn't expect Aspros to be such a master of tricks! He constantly switches between being a Saint and a Specter, completely countering Yoma."
"Yoma's move could instantly kill any Saint, but unfortunately, he encountered Aspros, who had already become an immortal."
From this perspective, the quality of the Surplices given by Hades is guaranteed. After all, a skill like time reversal is impossible for any human to escape.
The duel between Yoma and Aspros effectively turned into two lessons on special relativity.
.....
〜Type-Moon World, ██████ Worldline, Chaldea〜
If time allowed, Fujimaru Ritsuka would definitely review his textbooks again:
"Indeed, knowledge is far more powerful than something like the Eighth Sense."
Neither good nor evil! Hades and Athena have nothing to do with him; it's clear he's here for revenge, Heavenly Chief Star Yoma!
Da Vinci analyzed the current situation:
"Actually, Gemini is quite effective against Yoma. If it were the regular Aspros, he would definitely have been taken out by that last move."
"But this is Gemini, where Aspros and Defteros are one, possessing a physical body that can wear the Gold Cloth, and also the 12 hours of life given by Hades, completely unrestrained by time."
One can only say that Yoma chose his opponent too well; he's completely countered. Aspros is essentially exploiting a bug with two lives!
Lost a Saint's life? No problem! I'll just change into a Specter's uniform and return to battle. This move is quite impressive.
.....
[ The next second, Aspros's eyes turned cold: "Wicked demon! You dared to toy with my life. Absolutely unforgivable!"
As his words fell, Aspros raised his right hand, and a furious power gathered in it:
"Disperse into the galaxy!"
"Galaxian Explosion—"
A brilliant light instantly engulfed this space, and the explosive energy directly merged into Yoma's body...
In just an instant, the Surplice on the latter's body shattered, and his flesh was torn into fragments by this violent force.
"Ahhhhhh—!!"
The demon's screams echoed through this space, but Yoma's cries brought a smile to Aspros's lips: "Hmph... The demon's end, is it!"
A moment later, Yoma's screams completely subsided in the space. ]
